The agent of Real Zaragoza's Argentinian playmaker Pablo Aimar has claimed that Newcastle United are tracking his client.
The 28-year-old is all but certain to leave Zaragoza following their relegation from the Primera Liga, with a number of clubs in Spain also monitoring the situation.
Aimar's agent, Gustavo Muscardi, told The Sunday Sun: "Newcastle have asked about Aimar's situation, that is certain.
"There has still not been any formal offer for us and Zaragoza to study, but the Premier League would be perfect for him and I want to speak with Newcastle to take things forward."
Meanwhile, the Magpies are being linked with a move to try and sign England international winger Aaron Lennon.
The 21-year-old has been at White Hart Lane for three seasons, but has been linked with an exit from Spurs as head coach Juande Ramos bids to reshape his squad.
